Hi there everyone thanks for getting in contact.

After checking your accounts and Uplay, I've added the test server for Siege to on the following players accounts -

Adissap0intment

Steidus

Beefy_TaxPayer

devilhunter3273

RomarinhO

I can confirm that the TTS will only be visible during active TTS phases.

Therefore you should be able to see and access the TTS as soon as a new test phase starts.

For any information regarding the TTS, please see the TTS reddit:

Hi there, thanks for contacting us and welcome to the forums!

I have now added the test server to the following accounts -

Rosalina.

MOPS.sylanek

lehm_madu_uss

Kurupt_Chabuds

Aidan._.

MooxTheProdigy

Asinqz

SWEATYLIVE I am unable to find the Siege game on this account, so I will not be able to put the Test Server on your account. Do u perhaps have another Ubisoft account you are getting mixed up with?

Hey Brewsky, welcome to the forums.

For any issues with not receiving games from retailers, please reach out to the retailer directly.

You will probably need your proof of purchase email to attach to your case. You can contact them here through their support channel, here - https://greenmangaming.zendesk.com/hc/en-us

Hi la_chouffe, thanks for getting in contact with us.

This was an issue that was reported as fixed in the 6.2 patch of the game. Did you receive the quest before or after patch 6.2 was rolled out?

You can load an older save file from before receiving the quest, to make this work without this bug happening.

Let me know how you get on after trying the above and if the issue does not resolve itself would you be able to upload a video of this happening please? Thank you.

Hi AGupwhy7, thanks for getting in touch with us about this.

Do you know if your game switched to cloud saving instead of saving locally? Can I also ask if you are playing through Uplay or another game launcher?

Here is where you can usually find your saves - Documents\Anno 1800\Accounts

You can also set the interval time between auto saves. Having many auto saves can fill up your hard drive quite quickly, do you have a lot of space left on the drive where your game is installed?

Let me know so I can look into this further for you

Uplay crashes/closes after about 1 minute if I try to update the game (nothing actually downloads when i click update). I reinstalled Uplay but that didn't seem to solve anything, all other games seem to play fine.

Hi brian5583, sorry to see your game is crashing. Has this only happened recently? Please make sure you verify your game files in Uplay first, then let me know if the issue still persists.

Hello iron_brigade1,

Welcome to the forums and sorry to see your game is crashing after playing for so long.

At a glance I suspect it may be a memory issue, are you using any programs in the background that maybe be using your ram as well, causing the game to crash? These can include game overlays, VoIP programs and overclocking software, If you can disable these through task manager then launch your game, does your game still crash after placing the Seat of Power?

Here is a list of programs that can potentially cause crashes and performance issued if ran whilst Anno is launched -

Hey Tzuson, thanks for posting and letting us know this solved the same issue for you

You are very welcome

If you happen to have any more problems with challenges not unlocking in Anno, please come back to this thread.

Hey sinny1, thank you for coming back to the forums to provide us with your solution of updating windows and installing DirectX.

Also, thank you elpablo2010, for suggesting to activate virtual memory on Windows to help solve the DIrectX issues also.

I love a happy ending!

Hi robains, welcome to the Anno 1800 forums!

Thank you for creating a support case. I just wanted to mention I had some other players reply to me recently with DirectX related issues too.

They suggested, if you were running Windows 10 2004 version, to update it manually, as there was recently a Direct12 update issued that when updated, solved their issues.

To do this try -

Windows Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for Updates.

If the update is ready for your PC, you'll see a 'Feature update to Windows 10, version 2004' message appear under Optional Updates. You can then begin downloading by clicking 'Download and install now. You can check which version of DirectX you have in the dxdiag as well.

Another player also mentioned increasing their virtual memory in Windows 10, helped solve their 'DirectX Error Virtual Memory crash' issue.

Hey mtgrhox,

Thanks for reaching out to us and sorry these challenges did not unlock for you either.

I've checked the screenshots you have provided and have now unlocked these badges and actions for you.

Also the game crashed for me because I was maxing out my available RAM.
I therefore increased the page file size on the window SSD and the SSD the game was installed on.
Also closing Firefox and Chrome that use plenty of RAM helped.
Can those who are having the problem report the system RAM usage?

Hi GalaKnight

Further to what UbiKoality enquired about your connection, this error code usually means that the connection time with the matchmaking service has been exceeded.
